It was ScottC who recommended my current laptop to me a couple of years ago, and the machine, a Fujitsu S series, performs in an outstanding manner to this day.

To me, a combination of performance and suitability for travel was paramount, By the latter, I mean power consumption at 75 watts (in order to use airplane in-seat computer power systems), weight at or under 5 pounds, and excellent screen (watching DVDs on the plane is essential to me).

The Fujitsu passes with flying (no pun intended) colors. Excellent build quality (machines are built to order in Osaka and then shipped international FedEx). Good US-based tech support the one time I needed it.

Check out the current model S7220. I think that the website is shop.fujitsu.com
